Wow, I had 24 points in a stadium match, the next guy had 19 points, and I got shrunk at the last second, basically costing me the game

Won a match. Already got 50+ kills.

There seems to be a little lag in the game. I'll assume it's nothing, but sometimes the jump button is delayed, which does cause problems.

Bought it as soon as it was out.

Played through the first level, to familiarize myself with the controls and mechanics.

Just finished a few Duke Matches with Kaiser and some others, lots of frantic fun. I'll play it more later...I'm tired.

Look forward to seeing all you people around. My gamertag is Dimhenion

Re: Duke is out
Just thought i would have my say on the gaming experience i hvae had so far. The game is rock solid and smooth. Just how i remembered it and it is a faithful port that adds its own twists. I love the reply mechanic it really is easy to use and it does make death much less of a hassle.

Im still trying to get used to the controls but once i do i will see you all online

I recommend taking off the enhancements as they make it harder to see what's going on. I like it classic style

edit: Oh that was you Amakou. I had no idea. What happened when it froze up like that?

There's ways around that. Don't use a microphone. I rarely use mine.

Haha, yeah that was me...

From what I can tell, Kaiser left to sleep, then when he did it passed the host on to me, and I quit right when it said that to me....So I don't know...

Yeah, we kept killing ourselves. Devastator vs RPGs duels can be really messy. Besides, the other player was waiting for the Devastator to reappear.

Re: Duke is out
I bought this outright tonight in the one hour space I had before I had to see the girlfriend and it's absolutely cracking.

I have only ever played the n64 version in single player, so it's always surprising me when I walk into a new area which I haven't seen before. There's a bar in one of the earlier levels by the pool table where as I don't remember that being there in the n64 version. I've also been finding a few secrets which I don't recall seeing before, like the DooM marine dead in a tight corridor.

The options are spot on, I wasn't happy with the Y for crouch and B for use item so i swapped them around and it feels spot on for me. I also appreciate the achievement tracking and the level stat tracking which you've implemented in there too.

The single player recording makes perfect sense to me and it's so nice to not have to rely on quick saving on every corner which was inevitable if you didn't put the feature in.

Overall, the game is better than I remember, mainly thanks to me never playing a non-censored version of the game in previous years. I can't wait to finish see it through to the end and cracking on the multiplayer.

Keep fraggin', bitches!

Grrr.. I really want to play it but I've been extremely busy the past couple of weeks and that's not going to change anytime soon

I'd say give it about 3 or so weeks and I'll be playing with you all.
